FRANKLINVILLE - Laura M Krupczyk, aged 59, of Franklinville, passed away surrounded by love after a brief illness.

Laura was born July 12, 1966, in Buffalo, she was the daughter of the late Nancy Olofson and Russell Collier.

Laura was gentle yet fierce, she was calm but a force at the same time. She was full of warmth, strength and kindness.

Throughout her life, Laura found great joy in simple pleasures. She loved being a mother and a mommom to her grandchildren. She enjoyed sunbathing during summer days, playing cards and sitting by a bonfire on summer nights. She loved cooking and watching the Food Network.

Animals were instinctively drawn to her gentle and kind heart. She loved all of them big or small.

She loved having her entire family at her house and enjoyed the chaos that was always full of love and laughter.

Laura leaves behind a loving family: her husband, Gary; her children, Karin (Josh) Jochen, Jessica (Andrew Wood) Pierce, Michael Collier, Jason Krupczyk and Amber (Chris) Giermerk; and her grandchildren, Gunner, Gauge, Cadence, Elliot and McKayla, who brought immense joy and love to her life. She leaves behind an aunt and several cousins in California. She is also survived by her beloved dog, Max.

Laura was preceded in death by her parents; her mother- and father-in-law, Rola and Richard Krupczyk; and an uncle in California, Roy Olofson.

A celebration of Laura's life will be held at a later date, where family and friends will gather to honor her memory and the light she brought into their lives.

Her warmth, love, and kindness will be deeply missed but forever remembered by those who were fortunate enough to know her.
